nternational sensation Nico & Vinz took the stage on March 19 for the annual Spring Concert at Adrian College. Hailing from Oslo, Norway, the singing/songwriting duo — made up of Nico Sereba and Vincent Dery, has risen to the top of the charts performing songs of life, love and identity. With their unique sound, Nico & Vinz fuse varied eclectic influences — from pop to reggae, West African dance to hip hop, rock to soul — to create an engaging sound featuring soul-stirring melody. Their international hit “Am I Wrong” debuted in the United States in April 2014 to critical acclaim, while recent hit ”That’s How You Know” firmly planted the dynamic performers on mainstream radio. 12

Sammy Adams — a multi-talented artist, singer and producer, released his first independent album in 2010 called “Boston’s Boy.” After quickly rising to the #1 spot on the iTunes hip-hop charts, Adams cemented his spot on the scene. All the hype led Adams and his independent label 1st Round Records, to a deal with Sony RCA. While with RCA, Sammy collaborated with Enrique Iglesias, writing and featuring on his single “Finally Found You,” as well as producing hits such as “All Night Longer,” “Blow Up” and “Only One.” Adrian’s own Ryan ”Hitman” Betz once again opened this year’s event with his distinct sound and energetic performance.
